4 active public water systems in Connecticut had a Asbestos violation in the past three years. What Asbestos is and why it matters.

Inhalation risk from drinking water is considered minimal. EPA classifies asbestos as a Group B1 probable human carcinogen based on inhalation data.

About this data

A system is counted once if any of its violations in the past three years involved Asbestos, including monitoring and reporting lapses. Rules violated and status in the table are for the whole system, not Asbestos alone.

The Connecticut records are from EPA's data refresh of Oct 7, 2026; EPA refreshes this data quarterly, and states report to EPA with a lag of three to six months, so the newest violations may not appear yet.
